I cannot install RHEV-H on a USB stick.

The installation reports:

Not enough space for installation

Please select a bigger drive

Available Space 14762MB

Required Space 38931MB

Is there a way around this that doesn't require installing 6.2?

My 6.2 install failed due to this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805570

Hence I try a 6.3 fresh install to USB.

Try to set the partition sizes manually, as described in https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.0/html/Hypervisor_Deployment_Guide/sect-Deployment_Guide-RHEV_Hypervisor_Kernel_Parameters_and_Automated_Installation-Storage_parameters.html

Thank you, it worked.

I set:

storage_vol=:8000::::

to only allow 8GB swap partition and the install proceeded past the error
